Bujjigaadu is an out and out Prabhas movie. You will either love it or hate it and it all depends on whether you like Prabhas or not. If you do then the movie will be just perfect for you, if not then you will most probably not like the movie. It is Prabhas’ show all the way in Bujjigaadu, his dressing is a lot improved, he has better control over his diction, sports a six-pack and even looks good onscreen. If you are a Prabhas fan then Bujjigaadu is a feast for all your senses and you are going to enjoy it thoroughly. Trisha as always is a feast for the eyes and a sight for sore eyes. Only Mohan Babu is wasted in Bujjigaadu and plays more of a supporting role and while being a good actor does a commendable job, the role itself does not do anything to elevate Mohan Babu the actor.
Music too is a big letdown for Bujjigaadu and certainly not up to the mark for a Puri Jagannath movie seeing that music has always been a strong point in all his previous movies like Chirutha, Desamuduru, Pokiri, etc. In fact the only song hummable is Chitti Aayire by Pradeep Somasundaran and Sonu Kakkar with some replay value since it’s got a groovy and a peppy beat to it.
Coming to the story, well there is little of it in Bujjigaadu, but here it is. Prabhas and Trisha are the best of friends right from their childhood and yes elements of child romance here. However, differences crop up between them and that’s when Trisha decides she no longer wants to see or meet with Prabhas till they are both older which is 12 years later. This means Prabhas runs away to Chennai, well some reason is needed for him to go to Chennai so that the tagline “Made In Chennai” is relevant. Once the 12 years are up Prabhas comes back to meet up with Trisha, but owing to circumstances they are not able to meet and instead Prabhas comes to Hyderabad to kill Mohan Babu who also happens to be Trisha’s brother. How Trisha finds her Bujjigaadu and how all the good guys come together and finish off the bad guys forms the rest of story.
Production values by Creative Commercials are top notch. Fights are good in the movie since action is Prabhas’ forte with his six-pack abs and great physique. Comedy is good in parts. Wish Mohan Babu had more to do in the movie. For fans of Prabhas Bujjigaadu will be a good time at the movies since Prabhas is near perfect in the role of Bujjigaadu. He fights and dances well. Acting too is pretty decent, but then the movie is pretty light all the way through and does not demand much in the acting department. There are the usual truckload of villains for Prabhas to dispense with aplomb, but the fairer sex might find the action long and drawn out at places. All in all a good time pass movie and certainly worth the admission price of the ticket especially for fans of Prabhas and there are lots of them.
